Guest guest Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 What would GEORGE have become? Strip away family ties and inheritance. Strip away father's " connections. " Strip away unconditional admission to Yale because of his father' sitting on the alumni board. Strip away all that's given the man. Now, what have you got? Had he not been born into a family of privilege, here is what would probably have been George W. Bush's outcome: (1) He never would have been admitted to college, because he was turned down from a Texas public college for poor grades, but his daddy interceded for him to Yale administrators and they accepted him based on his daddy's credentials. " Affirmative Action of Privilege. " So, he would have probably settled for a high school diploma. (2) He never would have been able to start oil companies in Midland, Texas, without his daddy's contacts, primarily the BinLaden family of Saudi Arabia. Yes! I repeat. The Bin Laden family of Saudi Arabia who invested most into his failed ARBUSTO ENERGY CO. INC. If George would have been just an " ordinary " guy on the streets, just how far would he have come in getting $4.8 million to start a company? So, he probably would have settled for an average middle class wage working as manager of a fast-food joint or tavern. (3) He never would have been bailed out of 3 company failures, each one losing millions of investors' money, yet at each step Dubya got a little richer until at the end of his " business career " he went from $13,000 to $14,850,000. So, he probably wouldn't be much better off than average folk, living from check to check trying to make a living. (4) He never would have been elected as Texas governor had he not had businesses in Texas propped up by daddy's connections and Osama bin Laden's brother's money, Salem bin Laden. No? Check the records if you don't believe it! The man had no " business skills " of his own other than what his daddy handed him and he would have never even arrived in college had not his daddy intervened. (5) He never would have been " elected " president of the United States had his daddy not intervened and called Supreme Court justices whom were appointed by 41. No? Then check the records and see. Any candidate losing by 539,000 popular votes and an electoral college win decided by his little brother's state and his daddy's Supreme Court justices didn't get the White House by shere wit or accomplishment. Get real. This is the man leading the world to war? This is the man shattering our nation's foreign relations with both friend and foe? This is the man to " TRUST " to initiate a Middle East conflict without end? This is the man ruining the economy just like he ruined his little Texas businesses that daddy subsidized through political connections? So, what would George W. Bush had become without being propped up by pappy? Your call. Would you even hire the C-student for your business? Would he make a good trash collector? Could you even trust him to run your accounting firm like he ran his own failed businesses? What is your answer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
